What if healing didn’t have to hurt? In this illuminating presentation, therapist and EMDR consultant Celeste Himanek invites you to explore how the brain can release emotional pain and restore balance. Celeste will introduce two powerful, evidence-based approaches: EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and the FLASH Technique. Both methods work with your nervous system to ease overwhelm and reorganize old emotional patterns.

Whether you’ve experienced trauma yourself or simply want to understand the science of emotional resilience, this presentation offers hope, and a deeper appreciation for the brain’s remarkable capacity to heal.
Celeste has presented internationally on the Flash Technique and its applications. Her work blends evidence-based methods with a compassionate, strengths-focused approach – and she brings warmth, energy, and a sense of fun to what she teaches.

Celeste is passionate about making trauma healing both effective and engaging. She is the creator of Resilience by Design, a program offering workshops and tools for personal and team resilience, she combines practical strategies with interactive experiences to help participants leave not just informed but transformed.
